The Los Angeles Fire Department was called to Jackson's residence at 12:26 p.m. P.T., according to the Los Angeles Times. The paper reported that paramedics performed CPR on Jackson, who was not breathing when they arrived at his home. ... Read full article »

    What a shock! No matter what his scandals were in his life, his music was and always will be what he should be remembered for. He will finally be at peace. Like him or hate him, he was an icon in the music industry.

    Please, what amazing music? Quincy Jones did all the production on the "good" stuff. Weak song writing, great production. And b.s. on the wanting to help people. I am musician and I know guys who have made it, they only care about people when it looks good for the press and their potential fans. He had a great voice before he started his effed up stylizations but let's not elevate him to godhood.

    No need to be a jerk but that seems to typify all of you KJ cult people. Are you a musician? If not, worship the freak and shut it.

    Oh great, now we'll have 24-hour non-stop coverage of this poor man's death, funeral, etc. Never mind that NK is threatening nuclear annilation, people are dying in Iran, and congress is trying to push through the most massive and potentially costly new social program (socialized healthcare) in generations. I love Mr. Jackson's music, but he destroyed his life years ago. We need to just say "RIP and thanks for the great music" and move on for heaven's sake.

    Thumbs up was for the NK mention. Even though I disagree about Jackson's music, at least you have the presence of mind to remember we are in danger.

    I wish the media had the same presence of mind. But hey, they are just glad the sheeple are distracted from what the administration is up to at the moment.

    Is "POP" a weirdo? "King of Pop" is a misnomer. It should be, 'King of Weird' or, 'King of Pedophilia' or just, 'King-lover of little pee-pees'. Don't shower this guy with such loving devotion as to make him out a "legend". Beyond being weird he did have a legitimate musical talent but that cannot overshadow his 'sickness'. Chuck Gilliam

    i can see ur sick yourself

    What is it about me that you know whereby I might be adjudged as "sick"? If you are so blind with devotion as to not see the weird crap as bleaching out the blackness of ones body to make him white, then perhaps you too, are weird. Do you also "love" sleeping with little boys? Well, if that is true maybe you too will find a way to leave us shortly, with our good riddance. Chuck Gilliam

    He was the cutest little kid and a great singer. But in his later years turned very strange and I feel no great loss.

    "I cried when I found out"
    "I will miss him"
    Sounds like a pedophile to me.
